Reviews
There are plenty of activities to do in and around the hotel, and the food was unique and delicious definitely a highlight of the trip! The overall atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming.
I would highly recommend staying at Eibsee Hotel and I’m already looking forward to visiting again soon.
The hotel offers an excellent value for money 💶 : the room was comfortable and the included half-board very convenient. The meals were varied and delicious 🍴, definitely up to expectations.
The restaurant has huge panoramic windows overlooking the lake 🌊 – a true highlight, especially at breakfast when I loved starting my day with such a stunning view.
My room had a terrace with an amazing view of both Lake Eibsee and the mountains 🏔️💙 – such a privilege to wake up to that scenery!
The hotel also provides great amenities: direct access to the private beach 🏖️ with kayaks and paddle boards 🚣♀️🛶 to explore the lake. A magical and refreshing experience.
I didn’t get the chance to try the spa 💆♀️, but it’s available and adds to the already well-rounded offer.
The surroundings are just as exceptional: Lake Eibsee is one of the most beautiful in Germany 🌿, located at the foot of the Zugspitze 🚡. Whether walking around the lake or going up to the summit, there’s plenty to enjoy!
👉 In short: a wonderful hotel in a unique setting, perfect both for relaxing and exploring this stunning region.
Now for the hotel itself. We had stayed at the hotel before, but outside the high season. At that time, we appreciated the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the food. This year (2025), we booked for August. The experience was quite different, starting with a cool reception at check-in (distant and with hardly any information; luckily we already knew the hotel). The rest of the staff, with the exception of the bar, did not have the same customer focus that we had experienced before.
There was also a noticeable difference in the cuisine. In high season, there was no table service (although there was outside high season), but everything was served buffet style. The creativity in the dishes was very limited and even became monotonous after a few days. Again, this was a clear difference from our previous stays.
The rooms themselves are adequate and well equipped, but are starting to look a bit dated.
In summary:
- The hotel's trump card is its location on the Eibsee and the Zugspitze.
- There is a big difference in experience between low and high season (very busy in high season) in terms of both the culinary aspect and customer friendliness.
- There is also a noticeable difference between the two periods in terms of cuisine.
We would not immediately consider staying here again in high season.
Above all these things, we always appreciate the staff. They are the real key to bringing all the pieces together and making the experience. Thanks so much!
I was really pleasantly surprised by the food. Breakfast had a ton of variety, the afternoon snack was more than enough to count as lunch, and both restaurants served truly excellent dinners. Great wine selection, too.
The service was top notch. Everyone was so friendly, helpful, and on top of things. I didn’t have any trouble at all as an English speaker.
The spa was super relaxing and bigger than I expected—I especially loved the quiet room with a view of the lake. There are so many cozy spots around the hotel to just sit, breathe, and enjoy the scenery.
It’s a beautiful, peaceful place that really delivers on both comfort and experience.
While the restaurant staff were warm and welcoming, the reception service left much to be desired. A particularly unpleasant incident involved a staff member (possibly a manager, which is worse) who approached us in an extremely rude manner, assuming we were not hotel guests. It was only after his colleague informed him that we were indeed staying at the hotel that the situation was clarified - yet no apology was offered. This interaction felt not only unprofessional but also dismissive, especially given that we were well-presented and had simply returned from a hike and freshened up before dinner.
It was hard to ignore the contrast in how other guests - particularly white or German individuals, were treated with noticeably more courtesy. This disparity in treatment was disappointing and left us with the impression that the hotel may not often host people of color, or is perhaps not accustomed to doing so with the same level of hospitality.
Despite the beautiful setting and some positive elements, our experience was tainted by this unfortunate interaction. For that reason, we would not choose to return or recommend the hotel to others looking for a welcoming and inclusive stay.
The staff were friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with anything we needed.
Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable—we’ll definitely be coming back!
However, the young man at the reception told us that the restaurant was strictly for hotel guests. While we understood this rule, we were taken aback when we asked to use the restroom - especially considering my wife’s condition - and were told that restrooms were also only for hotel guests. He insisted that only guests with a room card could access them.
I completely understand that hotels have their own policies, but I believe that in situations like this, a little human kindness goes a long way.
